Just got around to finally mounting a zig-zag cleat for the anchor trolley on my Revo(trolley has been in place for about a year but have not needed it or used my Cobra which was completely rigged). I mounted it by my hip(out of the way for ER re-entry,etc)using #10 pan head bolts,washer,locknuts all SS. Now my left rib is bruised and also the bicep. Guess I need longer arms. Would also be great if the 2 eye operations I recently had improved my vision so I could see what I was doing. Bottom line:DON'T GET OLD

When my grandmother got in to her 80's and 90's she would mutter, "Getting old is not for sissies".  ::)

You're right. Grow old gracefully and with good health.....and don't go"swimming with the fishes" but keep on fishin'. ;)
